A fake leader, a fake God, and a coward King.

It was in the middle of a very bitter winter. Everything, unusually seemed somehow strange to me as a seven year old boy. The atomosphere was so obscure and complicated , as sad that I really was not able to feel any rationality through my instinctive and childish observation for the obviously excessive rapture among the people. They were bobbling in a way as if they were trying to over come  gravity and  floated on the surface of their rapturous moments. As a quiet and somewhat  aloof little boy, I really was not that successful in joining that ambiguous celebration which was supposed to welcome somethings which instinctively seemed to me much more ambiguous  than  the  celebration itself.

After the words, ‘independence’ and ‘freedom’ which I had already learnt from my father as my vocal and simple dictionary. The word, ” leader” was the next which I tried   to learn and add  to my little vocabulary. Therefore I needed to be  thought about that word by my father. So, he said to me: ” People are wating for the leader who is due to arrive, he is a very nice man, he is coming as the herald of independence and freedom,he is coming to kick the devil out of our houses and to bless our lives.This leader is due to arrive as an angel who is going to show us the right paths, ending in prosperity and salvation.” The only thing which I really realised from my father’s long and enthusiastic lecture  was that the leader was to be a great and benevolent person with good wishes for every body. Due to my further request on the word, “leader” I came up with this question which actually popped up from my imaginative mind: ” is a leader an invincible man?” my father, with no hesitation, replied: “yes my dear son, a leader is an invincible man” all of a sudden my mind dragged me back to a not so far past, in which, I had been replied by my father to a very similar question which in fact was an other final imaginary product of my inquisitive mind as I was listening to my father’s lecture about the SHAH ( king) as we were standing on the bank of a  surging river. The question was this: ” Can any one swim in this river?” my father replied: ” No one, but the Shah”

Now, Thirty years has passed from that bitter winter, in which Iranians were bobbling to welcome a ” leader” who was supposed to be the guiding angel and takes a nation to the paradise; a leader who was supposed to be the spiritual architect of a utopia in which the equality and justice would be accomplished under the God’s supervision; a leader who was supposed to be the purger of our so called obscene souls and to be the divine guide to the decency and honour. Now, Thirty years after that bitter winter that definitely can be called as the most bitter winter in the whole history of this unfortunate country, we are feeling desperate and somehow reckless due to the heavy and destructive blows which we have been receiving under a hegemonic ruling machine which was founded by a so called theocrat who was in fact just a dogmatic, illiterate, and mentally impaired man who was not even aware of what he was doing in the name of God and goodness. Nowadays, we are stuck in an infertile situation in which no grain of hope can be immune from abortion and fruitlessness; nowadays we are feeling arid and deserted; nowadays we are painfully regretting the gone with the wind opportunities which each of those could have been used as a basic watershed to set the route-planning process in a dynamic and even ground, if we had not been so infatuated with the promised utopia by a daydreamer alien who was not able even to speak the sweet language of Farsi in a proper manner. Nowadays we are wandered somewhere between the Hell and Paradise; while we are undeserved and ungrateful owners of a real Paradise with the beautiful and splendid name of IRAN.

Ayatollah Khomeini, who was entitled as the Imam of the poor and weak people as soon as he entered Iran in 1979 in a frenetic atmosphere, was the man who had come to save us from obscenity and oppression; the man who had come to Iran to set off a resurrection and invite the God to Iran! He began to rant from the very first moment of his arrival in an absolutely rambling language. He was so critical of the past rulers and kings( who he used to call them dictators) as if he himself was the pure love and affection, coming directly from the presence of God just for shedding the divine light on Iranians and bestowing them the eternal lives in order to make them the first perpetuated nation in the history of humankind on the earth! In a series of chained lectures, (which all of them were given in a rambling manner and with no relevant cohesion) he promised to make a very prefect material life for the people, especially for the poor ones; he promised them to share the great wealth of the country between all of them in the most possible meticulous way of justice and indiscrimination. Due to this issue, he told the people in particular: ” we will make everything free! You do not have to pay for the Gas, Electricity, water, and even MEAT and BREAD any more!!!” he kept rambling on ,further to his numerous promises which all of them were of a worldly and materialistic nature, of which naturally could be pleasant and interesting for the masses of people who most of them had been living in poverty and deprivation till that time.

Therefore, an intricate psychological factor which in fact was the product of the minds of malicious inner circles, was the main cause of KHOMEINI,s succeeding words to gather people about himself. It is obvious that a historically great nation that had been desperately trying to retrieve and getting to a better situation, (but had not been successful in doing so), is submissively ready to join any kind of movement which can give it a chance of being involved in issues which might lead it at least to a relatively more desirable imaginations for the future. So, the smart and greedy cronies around Khomeini , practically , and opportunistically made the most out of the people’s receptiveness morale that amazingly were growing as a vigorous surge towards Khomeini’s epic lectures. HASHEMI RAFSANJANI, this mysterious figure who has been in fact the master mind of the revolution and all the events in the recent history of this country, was the man who with his incredible intelligence used the illiterate but popular Khomeini by that time, as a tool to establish a real Islamic dictatorship.

Thereafter, under the Rafsanjani’s absolute influence over all the current issues, Khomeini’s promises to the people were sophisiticatedly diverted into a very amazing and thoughtful way, in which psychological methods, alongside with the religious dogmas, were meant to put the khomeini’s promises in a conditional ground in order to give a halt to the vigorously growing demands for the welfare state and a better social life between the people which had already begun due to the invigorating lectures given by Khomeini; therefore Khomeini in his later lectures put the necessity of undergoing a basic moral purification as an essential priority in. He said to the people who had become very optimistic about their future lives : ” you have been depraved, your morality has been contaminated, your virtue has been looted!! You are in need of virtue and spirituality; you have been living an obscene life! We have to fix your virtue and spirituality at first; we have to purge your souls” And thus, the virtue and spirituality were marked out as the essential preconditions which necessarily had to be undertaken ,prior to any kind of demand for the material and worldly life!

Thereafter, Khomeini as the the most effective tool in the hands of Rafsanjani and his astute cronies, was knowingly and unknowingly the executive of destructive plans which were meant to keep the people interested and amused with the moral issues which, were based on the religion- religious beliefs, in order to divert the certain demand for a certain life into a so called virtuous and divine demand .He was in fact the most harmful man for the masses of people who had enormously trusted him as a man of justice and good wishes. He betrayed them by using the religion and morality to put them in uncertain and delirious ways of recognition and approaching the certain goals , consistent with their certain existence. So to speak, he, like the other malicious leaders in the history, used the masses as the driving force in the process of establishing and formation of power and hegemony. As a matter of course, it is obvious that no virtue and morality can be achieved by a human society that is suffering from the poverty and is deprived of having a relatively comfortable life. I mean, the basic needs simply are the initial factors which must be taken into an exhaustive consideration when it comes to the aim of making a human society promoted in moral and social values, as it is not so difficult to understand that the people who are frustrated with their labouring lives, never, ever can think of moralities or getting involved in a virtuous challenge.

Thus, Khomeini, as the most effective figure in the process of imparting the confusing conceptions of life via the sophisticatedly prepared philosophy by the RAFSANJANI and his cronies , was undoubtedly the man who in fact abused the God, goodness, virtue, humanity, and all the good adjectives; he did so to establish the reign of God! The unknown and strange God who is the God of poorness and humiliation! The God who believes in poverty and deprivation as the elevating factors in the human life!! The God who gives the absolute authority to his so called spiritual Representatives on earth to confine the people within their houses just to prevent them of being corrupted!! Yes, in other word, Khomeini was the inventor of a very awkward, rough, relentless, and graceless God who is rather a traitor Shepherd than a merciful and great God! To my knowledge, God is just knowledge, wisdom, love, and affection; adding to this ( that no reign of wisdom and love can yield to nothing but tolerance, awareness, realization, mercifulness, rationality, and a gradual progress in minds and souls), I have no reason not to say that Ayatollah Khomeini was in fact a master of Sophism who did not have any real knowledge on the thought of divinity and religion. So, eventually, as the so called leader of Islamic revolution, he assigned a fake God with a load of satanic disciples to reign over Iranian people before his death.

Now, Thirty years after that bitter winter, Khomeini’s inheritors have created an unbelievably intricate mental disorderliness for the Iranian people, in which no word of reasoning and pursuing can go together to cause a motive and expressing a notion. So to speak, Khomeini, his fake God, and his satanic disciples have been absolutely successful in applying their intimidating philosophy to the process of manipulating and opiating the people. Now, thirty years after that bitter winter, freedom is decapitated ; a great and meritorious nation has been disgraced and the human values has been skewed. Now, Thirty years after that bitter winter, I am Thirty Seven years old, laden with sorrow, pain, and regret; during all these years, I have been trying to understand why that coward SHAH(king) (who used to be my father’s hero), had not been able to swim on that dangerous river, or why that invincible leader (who according to my father was to be a man of God and justice,and of course my virtuous leader ) did such a nasty treason to a hopeful nation?

Religious conjurers!

It is absolutely wondering to reflect upon this crafty game of religion and tricky Mullahs with Iranians. It would be so fascinating and thoughtful when going through this sinister and plaintive game is supposed to be the beginning point of an scrutinizing research on the manipulating state of religion and religious conjurers in Iran.

In the past, lack of knowledge to analyse and working out the religious orders in a plausible manner, could be pointed out as the main reason of our susceptible and gullible situation against the religion and malicious religious  conjurers; but it may seems a little strange that nowadays, in the century of maturity and science, in the century of computer and communication, in the century of rational attitudes and cogency, we are still yoked by the religion and religious leaders, we are still easy -to use tools in the serpentine hands of these plump Mullahs. So, this ridiculous story , surely would become much more interesting and of course amazing in the further attention to its lengthy, sad, and intricate structure.

It is said that once upon a time, a Mullah, with a big caulderon-like head, wrapped in a black turban, and with a very thick and black beard on his fat and wide face, and a pair of cunning eyes, and a big and sniffing nose, and with a huge body wrapped in a loose and black cloak, rather a shepherd, was giving a lecture to some people sitting in front of him with their shaggy heads, nodding in an  ardent way as if they were in the middle of catching a spiritual secret up, and often bleating some ambiguous words, rather a cattle of Goats. The subject matter was about the importance of living through the religious orders and keeping them away from any kind of indulgence and laxation as religious orders are considered as the so called paths of getting the prosperity and salvation!

as the Mullah had become motivated and really cheered up by the shaggy heads which were still lowering and raising, one of his audiences snapped a question in a very passionate tone as if he was going to reveal a divine secret: ” what should we do with a very fine and expensive Carpet which is polluted by urine?” the Mullah delighting the question,- as it was actually of a nature which characteristically was one of those most favourite questions for any Mullah-, smoothing his thick and black beard, perhaps to make the proper imagination of the smeared surface of a Carpet by a bloody child, – although it could not be the consistent way of doing so due to the tough fabric of his beard in comparison with the silky and pleasant surface of an even smeared Carpet-, looked at the man and said to him: “do you know what a great question is this?” Well, as we know Urine is not something which can be washed out from a Carpet when it comes to religion! So, as I am sure that you are a real and faithful Muslim, I am going to let you know that a polluted Carpet by urine must not be remained in the house of real Muslim!  So, you must in fact through it out as soon as you go back home; but do not be worried, there is also  another way which in fact our merciful religion allows us to choose it as an alternative in such cases.

Meanwhile, the others, the shaggy-heads,still nodding ardently, had became all ears to catch up the new secret of what to do with a polluted Carpet by Urine! The Mullah , clearing his throat, feeling completely galvanized with the ardent listeners, uttered in a very proud tone: ” well my dears, according to our religion you have to cut out the polluted part of your Carpet and throw it out! Yes, it is the only way to make sure that your prayers are accepted by God!  So, my dear do not hesitate and cut it out; as any kind of hesitation or laxation in terms of religion would be resulted to a great failure in your faith; therefore I strongly warn you to do what is said in our religion, so that you would be rewarded the paradise which is really a nice place and special for scrupulous people like you!” shaggy-heads were still nodding, perhaps were thinking about the possibilities of getting lost in the way to paradise in case of making any doubt about the manipulating Mullah’s sermon!

A few days later the same story happened to Mullah’s Carpet; Mullah’s stout son had actually drenched the silky and expensive Carpet which Mullah used to say his prayers on it; but this time there were no religious orders to throw the Carpet out, or to cut its polluted part by urine out. Thus, in answering to his wife who had reminded him of his prescription for the same problem in the mosque and asking people to cut the polluted part of their Carpets out, said to her: ” hey unwise woman, what I say to the people in mosques, comes only into play for them and it does not have anything to do with my own household; so, do not be so silly; go and rinse the Carpet! It will do! Go and RINSE IT!

Therefore, in the past, lack of sufficient knowledge as a result of low education, plus a general poorness in all fields of our lives, had made us so gullible and vulnerable that Mullahs could take the piss out of us and make us to play silly games instead of taking a rational attitudes towards our objective and certain goals. Ironically, nowadays that we are completely different with what we used to be in the past, Mullahs are taking the piss out of us so easily! So what is that? Why are  they  so successful in making us to play silly games? There is a dramatic secret in this issue which really can be pointed out as a great proof to the Mullahs’ exquisite intelligence! So, what is that secret? It is as simple and  plaintive as thoughtful and funny: In the past, we were tricked by the Mullahs because of our ignorance and our gullible situation; in the past we used to have been afraid of God; the ambiguous fear which in fact had been imparted by Mullahs to cause uncertainty and irrationality in our minds in order to create some silly billies as the tame and submissive players  for their malicious games; but nowadays, ironically, we are all part of the game; nowadays we are knowingly are tricked! We are in fact completely aware of our roles and their destructive affects on our future! Nowadays we are obliged to play silly games which we know how ridiculous they are! It is so amazing as sophisticated that one might not be able to understand the differences between the stupidity and saneness!

Giving incredible chances of accessing to the great opportunities to the people who are ready to take part in the silly games of religion and to play a role in the process of applying the religion to the unfair and sinister ways of exercising the power over the people, is the very effective policy which is sophisticatedly adopted by these intelligent Mullahs to make a hefty body for their ruling machine, and also to make a legitimate face for themselves and what they do in the name of God and religion. Thus, nowadays, a remarkable number of our population are knowingly all part of the games which in fact make them benefited in different ways and on the other hand make them to work for the Mullahs and to impart the religious tricks as social values in order to oblige the people to obey the religious orders. Nowadays, religious conjurers are performing an exquisite show of religious hegemony via a sinister polarization which in fact is the biggest obstacle on the way of getting to a uniting thought and common interest; nowadays some of us are funny dolls in the hands of religion and Mullahs; some of us are playing the roles  of scapegoats to help the Mullahs to rein us into their pleasant ways! Nowadays we are involved in the process of distorting our genuine values by performing a delirious dance in the presence of God and his sorcerous Representatives in this country.
